affairs of the Charity and of the surplus or deficit of the Charity for that period. In preparing
those financial statements the Board of Trustees have:

position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the

Independent Examiner's Report
30th June 2025
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 2025. which comprise
the Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet with associate notes.
This report is made solely to the charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the
Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. My work has been undertaken so
that I might state to the charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent
examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or
assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's Trustees as a body, for my
examination work.
Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
The charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements, and they consider
that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and
that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
Examine the accounts (under Section 145 of the Charities Act).
To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity
Commissioners (under Section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act); and
To state whether matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity
Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Group/Charity
and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any
unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning
any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an
audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view, and
the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
•
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and •
prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the
accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or
2) to which,
in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statement as at 30th June 2025
1. Accounting policies
The principal accounting policies are set out below. The accounting policies have been
adopted consistently throughout the year.
a) Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as
modified by the revaluation of certain fixed assets, and are in accordance with the
Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities issued in
March 2005 and the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April
2008).
b) Incoming resources from generated funds
Incoming resources from generated funds represents donations towards weekly
tithes, church building fund, thanksgiving, annual conference, travel and other
contributions
c) Incoming resources; Interest receivable
Interest is credited in the year in which it is received.
d) Resources expended
Expenditure is recognised when a liability is incurred. Funding provided through
contractual agreements and performance related grants are recognised as services
are supplied. Other grant payments are recognised when a constructive obligation
arises that results in the payment being unavoidable.
Costs of generating funds are those costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and
those incurred in activities that raise funds.
Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable
objectives of the Trust. Single or multi-year grants are accounted for when either the
recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and the trustees
have agreed to pay the grant without condition, or the recipient has a reasonable
expectation that they will receive a grant and any condition attaching to the grant is
outside of the control of the Trust.
Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been
communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the
grant or the amount of grant payable.
Governance costs include those incurred in the governance of its assets and are
primarily associated with constitutional and statutory requirements.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent
with the use of resources.
